    Question What do your kids have for afterschool snacks?

    Katie thinks she has to have a banana with a glass of milk everyday lol

    Ashley just grabs something to drink.

    Jackson's not in school but he snacks ALLDAY long

    Today however Katie will have Heaven's Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

    My dd Katie has a real sweet tooth so she goes for the junk first! She is 15 and sometimes there is no reasoning with her!!
    My ds Kyle (8) loves to have fruit, string cheese, yogurt or turkey wraps. He eats very well, he has his moments when he wants junk but for the most part he is a healthy eater!!

    Zachary has graham crackers, cheese or string cheese, triscuits, assorted fruits, baby carrots, yogurt, pretzels, cheerios or other type of cereal dry, pudding, jello, tomato slices, cucumber, fruit cups, rice cakes, bagels, animal crackers, vanilla wafers, granola bars, raisins. Occasionally, he'll have popcorn.
    It just depends on what we have on hand. He'll eat just about anything for snack.

    My kids will eat anything for a snack and it too depends on what is in the house.

    Ds#1 would eat non stop if I let him, then again he is 6' 4" and only 14. He likes anything that is food!! Dd likes fruit and ds#2 eats anything except sweets. He too is a big eater.

    My youngest son (14) loves mini pizzas, made on a biscuit. They're so easy to make , and he will eat 7 or 8 of those at one sitting. He also loves sweets, but I'm trying to encourage him to eat healthier.

    Zachary found the Halloween bag of treats tonight. LOL I caved and gave him one mini kitkat. Five minutes later he was saying mommy more chocolate please more. I caved and gave him another one. About an hour passed and I hear Gabe say ok buddy, you can have one. That little sneak!!! He had three mini kitkats. LMAO That's more chocolate than he normally has in months, but he was all smiles. It was just too precious.

    My boys grab what ever is handy. the youngest, 6'4" and 128 lbs loves salad but only if mom fixes it for him he claims he just cant get it right! LOL I usually cave and make it cuz he is my baby and is so cute.
    the oldest prefers junk or cheese stuff.
